Getting Updates to Work Through Apple ID:

Works practical for all out there. There’s all sorts of ways to troubleshot this, I would start with the following.

Troubleshooting iCloud Logins:

A. Go here: If you can't Connect or Sign in to iCloud - Apple Support

B. Try Safe Mode:

In Safe Mode, login items do not run, and corrupt system files(i.e. caches) are intentionally reset as a way to fix issues

1. Boot: in to Safe Mode: [Hold Down: shift key upon boot].
2. Log in: as same user
3. Wait: 30 seconds
4. Restart; your Mac
5. Log in: as same user
6. Perform another login

C. Restart your Router:

Power off your router for 30 seconds, and then power it back on. Try this once more.

D. Disable VPNs:

Are you connected to a VPN? If so, disconnect form it while logging in.

E. Try Later On:

There is likely an error connecting to Apple's servers. So, try this tomorrow, or later in the day. Utility work may be taking place down the street.

G. Single-Out this Computer:

Try using a different computer for this.

H. Restart the Computer:

Shut down the computer, and then power it back up. Try once more

I. Restart the Router/Modem:

Power off the router/modem for 30 seconds(by unplugging the power source). Next, plug it back on, waiting if all the light to come in. Try once more.

J. Use a Home LAN:

There may not have been enough bandwidth in the network to do so, or it may have stalled. If using a public LAN, then you may have been using too many resources, and they kicked you off the server.
